IPMA® Certification
IPMA® certification: well prepared for Level D to A
Through training and individual coaching I prepare you for all four levels of IPMA® certification, as an IPMA® Certified Trainer and textbook author. So far I have supported over 1,200 candidates in IPMA® and agile certifications.
Overview
The four levels of IPMA® certification
The four-level IPMA® certification system ranges from proof of sound project management knowledge to the strategic leadership of highly complex projects, programmes or portfolios. Levels B and A are available for programme and portfolio management. Requirements and procedure are set by the responsible national certification body.
Certification is evidence-based: at each level you provide verifiable evidence in line with the required level of competence. Its type and scope depend on the level and on the procedure of your certification body.

Responsible leadership of projects of medium complexity.
